Disliked: Cleanliness, property conditions & facilities
The bed was horrible, sink and shower were disgusting with a bad odor coming out as soon as you run the water, they say it’s a smoke free hotel but still people were smoking weed in their rooms and the smell came through the vents, people were loud, playing music, running up and down the stairs all hours of the night even after I called to complain nothing was done, it was impossible to sleep, the staff didn’t seem to care even upon check out there was no care at all for what I was reporting to them. Somehow they still charged more than $100 per night even though when I booked it showed $78 per night, they still charged me $102 per night in two transactions. If I had known it was going to be a horrible stay I would have booked at the holiday inn or somewhere else worthy of $100 a night. Never staying here again.

Upon arrival was greeted by a locked office door and an elder woman on her cell phone who told me to wait. Turns out the clerk had gone across the street to Starbucks and returned after about 5 minutes of waiting. Check in process with the, now caffeinated, young man was quick while the elder woman previously mentioned stood behind him watching over his shoulder. Shower wall had discoloration (mold?) growing in the caulking of the seam but room was otherwise clean and odor free. Beds were comfortable and linens appeared clean. While sitting at the in room table, a giant roach flew from an unknown place and landed on my purse. I swatted it but didn't totally squish it as i didn't want to clean the guts off my shoes then repack them. Fortunately it was tve only bug i saw suring my stay.
